Managing the status of all participants

This section describes how to perform tasks from the Participants section of the Conference Call Manager window (see Figure 18 on page 37).

Note: If a chairperson is not present on the conference, the Dial-out activity is not available (see Figure 19 on page 38).

Counting and announcing all participants

Click Count and announce to announce the total number of participants, followed by the participants’ names as recorded in the name entry.

Muting all participants

Click Mute all to silence all participants except the chairperson. To unmute all participants, click Unmute All. The button text toggles between Mute all and Unmute All.

Individual participants can still be unmuted or muted (see “Muting or unmuting individual participant(s)” on page 46) while the conference is in Mute all state. Mute all takes precedence, but Unmute all restores all participants to their individual states - muted or unmuted.

Click Disconnect all to disconnect all participants except the chairperson.
